The 5 Best Spots to Enjoy a Gin & Tonic in Frigiliana
Enjoy a classic Gin & Tonic
Frigiliana is often called the most beautiful village in Spain, and it is easy to see why. Between the winding cobblestone streets and the panoramic views of the Mediterranean, every corner of this pueblo blanco feels like a postcard. But to truly experience the spirit of the village, you need to slow down, find a shaded terrace, and enjoy a classic Spanish Gin-Tonic.
Discover your favourite place
We are often asked where the best place is to enjoy a drink. Here are five of our favorite spots to soak in the atmosphere of the Axarquia with a glass in hand.
For a more relaxed experience, visit Vinos el lagar above the park known affectionately as 'The barrel bar' or, alternatively visit the far end of the village and meet Javier & Charo at the famous La Domadora y el León
No,1 Rumba y Candela
Rumba y Candela Located in the heart of the village, Rumba y Candela is the perfect spot for those who want a vibrant, authentic atmosphere. Their terrace is a fantastic place to enjoy a premium Spanish Gin-Tonic while watching the world go by. The bold, traditional Puerto Rican flavors of the cuisine here pair beautifully with the complex botanicals of an artisan spirit.
